I hire out my social media and web work. Since I am a one-person business, my social media and web people who manage my online presence are manageable with my income and I really like the volume of the business generated. I don't want it to feel a job and enjoy my craft, which is really important to me as I used to work mega hours prior to retirement as an IT professional.

I don't have any choice in the matter, but since I don't have a brick & mortar it really won't affect me other than events will continue to either cancel or just won't be scheduled.

No, because I have no employees or a brick & mortar storefront.

Actually, my best is word of mouth. If you offer services, make sure you set expectations correctly with your client. If there are delays, keep them informed.

I really don't worry about anyone copying my designs, there are several of my beading friends create our designs together. My capital is based on how I finish my product and guarantee if anything happens to my jewelry. Materials do fail sometimes, so if a magnetic clasp fails, for example, I redo the piece with a new clasp of their choosing. This is free of charge.
Since I am a one person business, I hired a wonderful social media person, web help and now renting space in a boutique, plus consignment in several other shops. I am not in a position to hire full time help, nor do I want to deal with tax laws to pay a salary either. This is working for me, but...

Since I am a one person business, I hired a wonderful social media person, web help and now renting space in a boutique, plus consignment in several other shops. I am not in a position to hire full time help, nor do I want to deal with tax laws to pay a salary either. This is working for me, but cannot tell others what would work for them.

My most memorable event was being asked to create bridal jewelry for a friend's daughter who was very tiny. She could not find anything that wasn't too long or too big. She sent me pictures of the dress and sash to see if I could match it. She needed a 16" necklace, 6" bracelet and short drop...

My most memorable event was being asked to create bridal jewelry for a friend's daughter who was very tiny. She could not find anything that wasn't too long or too big. She sent me pictures of the dress and sash to see if I could match it. She needed a 16" necklace, 6" bracelet and short drop earrings. I drove to Massachusetts a day early for the wedding to deliver the pieces for her. They were perfect and she wrote a beautiful thank you note stating that she felt beautiful wearing her jewelry and hoped to save them for any future daughters.
My time would be spent designing and creating more fabulous jewelry to sell or display.
